Chicken rolls - like asparagus rolls but different

I had these at a do the other week and I want to make them. They are like asparagus rolls but instead of asparagus they had a chicken filling. I think there was also cream cheese, mayonnaise, spring onion, not sure what else in the filling. Does anyone know what I mean! Google has not worked for me so far.

OMG that sounds delicious, have had before and I think they may also have a wee bit of wholegrain mustard.

I used to make dozens at a time.I poached the chicken breasts withsliced lemon,fresh thyme, a small onion and a bay leaf.When chicken is cool,shred and mix with mayo,and wholegrain mustard,just enough to bind.Make a coleslaw including plenty of parsley and mint along with the usual carrot,onion and celery,all finely chopped.Salt and pepper.

Remove the crusts from a loaf of sandwich bread,its easier to use an electric knife if you are making in quantity.Butter bread right to the edges,add coleslaw and chicken,roll up diagonally and secure with a dab of butter,no need for toothpicks.Cut in half so they can stand up rather than laying flat on the plate.Can sprinkle with finely chopped fresh herbs.

I once made (for a bit of a joke for someone who craves asp).
drained and mashed a tin of peas, with black peper and mayonaise, then rolled up like asp rolls. To my surprise they went down well.
Have also done savoury egg and rolled instead of triangle sandwiches

I used to fill them with chicken, apricot sauce, chopped spring onion and cream cheese.If itneeded to be thinned out a bit I would do it with mayo or cream.Did these for a supper for over 200 and people raved about them.

Had a $ for every one of these I'd made I'd be a millionaire>>
I always just did them with crusts off buttered bread, a thin layer of mayo (ranch is nice with chicken) you can add a touch of cranberry or apricot sauce if desired, a piece of frilled fancy lettuce, then the sliced cooked chicken *I prefer sliced rather than shredded as it's bitty* (so it looks like a piece of chicken rather than a blob) and just roll.
yummy and very effective when plated. Also often cut them in half and stood them on the blunt end, for a very dainty mini version.
